Its never a waste of time to clean the tracks no matter how big or small of a company you are , one loose rock can kill someone . Chaining to the frame of a machine is always better but the tracks are ok also
Two points to live by. One, if there is more than half the tracks or wheels are hanging over the sides outriggers are mandatory. Two, if your hauling a dozer with a blade 12 feet wide or more. The blade must be loaded to the rear of trailer. Couldn't see it well enough in video. But one of the dozers they drove on forward looked like it had a 12 foot blade.
hellbilly hellraiser Thats a old wise tell the air going down the exhaust isn't enough to spin the turbo I've been pulling RGN for 4 years never once had a problem
With the baffles in the muffler on most exhaust systems as well as non direct travel for air around curves and bends in the exhaust pipe. It's extremely unlikely that you'd ever Spin a turbo on a new machine. I've never had it happen in 12 years.

Is hooking chains to the track the usual thing to do? I've never been involved in loading heavy equipment, but it seems like it would be better to hook to eyelets on the body of the machine. Maybe hooking to the track is in addition to eyelets.
@bleedeye101 Yah its prety common at the company i work for we use the tracks to tie down the equipment and if theres eyelets then we use them but the tracks seems to work good havent lost a machine yet.
The driver wouldn’t be able to see the guy guiding or the trailer the guy guiding is on a platform that is secure and he is holding on tight but ya kinda scary
You do not chain to the tracks on any piece of equipment they can and will move and they bend very easy (learned the hardway bent the hell out of a track on a d7 wide track) theres always better and actually faster ways than a binder from the track to the side of the trailer.
This is team work, and Hevey heavey Equip. like an a operators. that operate these big ones doing their job for all , the roads we all drive on and enjoy , somuch is taken for the seens!!!
Routing on permits is not the responsibility of the drivers ,,, even owner operators. You call permit company and let them know what you're hauling and it's weight and dimensions and where you are going to and from and they figure out all the particulars.

ingermany its forbidden to save tracked vehicles at the tracks with chains or anything else. they`re not created for load saving. you have to lock the chains anywhere at the frame or the shield or the cabin if the producer says in his instruction book that its ok.and what should you do at loading when you have a semitrailer with a height of 80cm and a construction site where the fllor isn`t plain and the tracks are muddy or snowy.

Love the narration... "if ya dont follow the safety rules"
Excellent. 35 Years Lowbeding with no regrets.
I start this work Jan 2nd. Brand new and lots to learn
"The hard way is, well... kinda messy."
As someone who lives near some of the most struck overpasses in the country, hoo boy is this true.

Thank you for this video. I learned a lot.
When putting a load on wider than deck should always flip out side extensions
I'm in college... But this is what I do with my time..
Nice man me 2 addicted to this stuff.
This will teach way more than college

Sergei dratchev is the tie down king. Heavy haul.
Yes
Great video, thank you !
Shake hands with danger. The og’s know this one.
I'm waiting for a machine to get done so I can load it onto my RGN, I'm watching videos on UA-cam and I just so happen to run across this video
that is really useful thanks guys .
reading up on how they transported SR-71 prototypes by truck to their testing ground is basically this to the extreme.

: )
Looks like him. But Al was already pretty famous by the time this film came out. That was a good show.

The narrator sounds like Hoyt Axton. He died in 99 but this film was likely produced a few years before the release date.
Thank you

Is it legal to just use a binder from the track to the rail on the trailer. Or do you need a binder and a chain.
Yes it's legal.
It's ok, but not the safest! A chain should be added because binders break b4 the give, and a chain will give a bit!

不错的视频！
Here in the philipines we dont nees spotter,your going to know its not right when the equipment is already upsidedown
i believe i hear jack from heartland
Heavy Iron!!!!! Yeah!!
um....clamping the equipment to the trailer by the tracks just can't be right...
Yep thats right
the way i do it is,,,,if its a short move,,(haul),,,i'll just boom the tracks down,,,,,but if its a long move,,(haul),,,i'll boom the tracks down and chain the rippers down and the blade,,,,,i really dont like useing a chain cause the chain gives,,,,it streches and ratchet booms dont

Shouldn't be using the tracks as a anchor point
